What you've linked to is a scam.

You can't unless you have an A4 device with an exploitable bootrom or SHSH blobs saved. You can't "downgrade" in a browser like that, it's completely impossible.



Thought so.

Wasn't there a Jailbreak that was available via Safari?


That was Star - http://theiphonewiki.com/wiki/Star

It's a completely different process to a restore. Star used a PDF exploit to work it's way up to a kernel exploit allowing for the patching out of various protections which allowed for a jailbreak. You could not have used this exploit kit to restore an iPhone in the way this video claims to.


Ah thanks!
